We have an adorable Maltese who my wife and I adopted last weekend.
He's recovering from a very hard life and isn't sick at the moment but would appreciate knowing if there is an English speaking vet in Suwon.

We don't live in Suwon but in the countryside (about 30 minutes away by taxi/bus).

Really no one knows of a English speaking vet in Suwon?
We found one where we live though. He might actually be the only Korean out here that speaks English at a high enough level to understand. Bonus!
If you are in Suwon and need an English speaking vet let me know. The countryside is great this time of year.

There is one near Namoon, on the way towards Suwon Stn. He doesn't speak much English except the technical terms but can understand a lot of what I say and is very nice and always really helpful. He's a real vet, not like some of the other ones trying to make a buck.

Walk from Namoon to Suwon Stn and he is just after the GGI (eye glasses store) and the police station, on the right hand side. The guy is really good. We have been going there for over 6 years.

Mention 'Brownie' is your friend. He only goes by animals names.

Best of luck and hope it works out ok. It just takes time when the animal has had a bad life before meeting you. They need time to trust again.

if you're anywhere near Yeongtong (on the southeast side of Suwon), there is a great vet office where all of them speak exceptional English. They're right by the Holly's next to Homeplus. They're called Animal Plus Hospital or something like that

Yeah I give them the heads-up. All ladies (one's a bit dour, but the rest are really nice).
